Updated 25Live Link Now Available

With the launch of the new College websites manhattan.edu and inside.manhattan.edu along with recent updates to the 25Live system, we will be changing how the community accesses 25Live to create an easier and more streamlined experience. Much of the feedback received in the spring from the 25Live survey focused around the amount of time and clicks it took to create a new event. The new link to 25Live will be promoted as “Create an Event” and will link directly to a new, more streamlined request landing page where the requestor will be able to create an event or reserve a space with far fewer clicks and in less time. Access to the existing full-featured site will continue to be available by clicking the "Desktop Version" link on the new landing page or using the current direct-access URL http://25live.collegenet.com/manhattan

The link to 25Live on the new quicklinks dashboard of inside.manhattan.edu will look like the following - both the button and the description when the “i” icon is clicked:

Clicking on the new 25Live quicklink will bring users to the new lightweight request page as below:

From this new landing page, requestors will have the opportunity to create a new event by clicking the “Events” button followed by a new streamlined event request wizard. The new event wizard consists of a single screen with all pertinent event info - replacing the former multi-page request wizard.

Clicking the “Locations” button will allow requestors to quickly find a space and reserve it in a similarly streamlined fashion. The “Resources” button has been reserved for future use.

All new links for requestors are designed for mobile - which means that event requests can now be done from any mobile device.

Finally, access to the current full-featured site will contimue to be available by clicking the "Desktop Version" link on the new landing page or using the current direct-access URL http://25live.collegenet.com/manhattan
